Interesting thought on the positioning  of the prop thrust line in relation
to the wake from the wings. Given the torque pulses of a recip, would you
want to position the prop in such a way to balance the torque pulses of the
engine with the loading/ unloading of the prop due to it's interaction with
the wake from the wing? Just thinking.

The torque pulse's are there but I am not sure the prop is speeding up
and slowing down all that much twice each rev. Would be interesting
and easy to instrument it and find out however.
